How to Prepare Baked Carrot Falafel [Vegan]

  1. Preheat oven to 375ºF and grease the bottom and sides of 1 or 2 oven-safe dish(es) with half the avocado oil.
  2. Use the small shredding blade of a food processor, a box shredder, or mandolin to shred the carrots. Change the blade to the S-blade if using a food processor, add the remaining ingredients, and pulse until you get a fine crumble.
  3. Scoop out 2 tablespoons of the batter, form into a patty and place on the greased baking dish. Repeat until all the batter is used up.
  4. Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes until golden on top and around the edges. Flip them half-way through if needed (I noticed that when using convection oven there was no need to flip).
  5. Serve with a salad, sprouted/GF tortilla, or on a collard leaf with sauerkraut, pickled onions, greens, tomatoes, and a drizzle of lemon tahini sauce. Store leftovers in the fridge for 3-4 days or freeze in an air-tight container for months.
